Stern signs with Sirius

I know Howard Stern is controversial and many people think he is..well, evil. But Stern has been more forceful, more effective, and reached more people in his strident support of John Kerry and thoughtful attacks on Bush-Cheney since about February of this year than Air America and liberal blogs combined. Why? Because Stern reaches literally millions of not-particularly-polically-active males between the ages of 18 and 49. On January 1, 2006, I will be listening to the Stern show (of which I've been a fan since about March 2005) on Sirius Satellite Radio. The show will be unfettered by FCC rules. I can't wait. I was literally waiting to decide which satellite service to buy until Stern made a decision, one way or another, between terrestrial, XM or Sirius. Not only is this exactly what die-hard Stern fans always wished for - uninterrupted reception throughout the entirety of North America - but also what Stern has dreamed of: uncensored broadcasting. Until now, XM has been seen as winning the satellite wars. Well, Sirius just stormed the beaches at Normandy.
